Chicano Batman Made Their Late-Night TV Debut on ‘Conan’

Following Chicano Batman’s meteoric rise in the indie universe has been a trip. From their campaign with Johnnie Walker, which saw them reimagine “This Land Is Your Land” into a pro-immigrant anthem, to their polished sophomore album Freedom is Free, the past year has been a whirlwind ride for the masked crusaders of psych soul. Their latest feat? Making their late-night TV debut on Conan last night.

The group hit the stage with a blast of funk, alongside two elegant backup singers dressed in white, performing Freedom Is Free’s “Friendship (Is A Small Boat in a Storm).” By the looks of it, even Conan was impressed, as he gave the quartet three hearty exclamations of “That was great!” Even on network TV, Chicano Batman’s charisma resonates.
